Carmina Escobar is a vocalist, sound, and intermedia artist from Mexico City whose work focuses on the interrelationship of physical, social, and memory spaces to the body, voice, and sound. She has been awarded grants by the Fondo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes (National Fund for the Arts) of Mexico and the MidAtlantic Arts Foundation and has collaborated on recordings for the labels Abolipop Records (Mexico), Cotton Good Archive (England), Mathka (Poland) y Edge Tone Records (USA). Escobar performs and presents her work frequently in Mexico and internationally. Currently she is the vocalist and co-artistic director, along with Alexander Bruck and Carlos Iturralde, of [liminar], one of the most innovative experimental new music ensembles in Mexico.

Eve Luckring is a visual artist and poet based in Los Angeles. Her work questions the assumptions—and experiments with the boundaries—that define place, body, and habit. For the past several years, she has been translating traditional Japanese poetic forms into the visual realm to renegotiate the binaries of nature/culture, subject/object, and self/world. Luckring’s videos and installations have been exhibited internationally in both traditional art venues and public spaces. Her poetry has been published in numerous journals and anthologies, including Haiku in English: The First Hundred Years, W. W. Norton & Company and The Disjunctive Dragonfly, A New Approach to English-Language Haiku, Red Moon Press.

Jan Wagner was born 1971 in Hamburg and has been living in Berlin since 1995. Poet, essayist, translator of Anglo-American poetry (Charles Simic, James Tate, Simon Armitage and many others), he has published six poetry collections since 2001, the most recent, Regentonnentonnenvariationen (“Rain Barrel Variations”), winning the prestigious Award of the Leipzig Bookfair (2015), the first poetry collection ever to do so. A Selected Poems 2001-2015 will be published with Hanser Verlag in Spring 2016. With the poet Björn Kuhligk he edited the comprehensive anthology of young German language poetry Lyrik von Jetzt. 74 Stimmen („Poetry of Now. 74 voices“, 2003); a selection of his essays on poetry, Die Sandale des Propheten. Beiläufige Prosa (“The Prophet’s Sandal. Incidental Prose”), was published in 2011. Wagner’s poetry has been translated into thirty languages, also into English (Self-Portrait With a Swarm of Bees. Selected Poems, translated by Iain Galbraith, was published 2015 by Arc, UK). He has received various scholarships (for example 2011 in the German Academy in Rome/Villa Massimo) and literary awards, among them the Anna-Seghers-Award (2004), the Ernst-Meister-Award for Poetry (2005) and the Friedrich-Hölderlin-Preis (2011) and is a member of the German Academy of Language and Literature.

Upper Limit Los Angeles

About the Bureau

The Poetic Research Bureau is a valise fiction and portable literary service in Northeast Los Angeles.

Our living room at 951 Chung King Rd in Chinatown hosts an extended community of autodidacts and guessworkers caught up in language, inquiry and the unguarded arts. Just as it is: a community free school by day, and by night, a non-professional public forum for presentations, readings, screenings and sundry intellectual exchanges.

As an out-of-pocket California milk-crate boosterist enterprise, the PRB also serves as the irregular literary umbrella for projects such as occasional poetry journal The Germ ('97-'05), edited by Andrew Maxwell and Macgregor Card; and art-lit mag Area Sneaks, edited by Rita Gonzalez and Joseph Mosconi.

As a research bloc, the Bureau attempts to cultivate composition, publication and distribution strategies that enlarge the public domain. It favors appropriations, impersonations, 'compost' poetries, belated conversations, unprintable jokes and doodles, 'unoriginal' literature, historical thefts and pastiche. The publication emphasis is on ephemeral works, short-run magazines and folios, short-lived reprints and excerpts in print-on-demand formats, and the occasional literary fetish objects of stupidly incomparable price and value.

Several reading series are hosted at 951 CKR, and we welcome writers whose work lacks the 'commercial tendency' while harboring the bright, high-minded intentions that often lead to broad panic, righteous perversions, improbable arguments, and the ill-served cul-de-sacs of genius. The series are coordinated by the aforementioned Messrs Maxwell and Mosconi. If you're sympatico, passing through town, or need a megaphone, 50 seats and a big blank space, give us a write.
